How much are The Beatles Autographs worth?
A question we get asked often is How much are The Beatles Autographs worth?. This is a difficult question as a lot of things make items more rarer than other.
Sad thing is, around 80% of The Beatles signatures that are found online in marketplace place auctions etc are most fake. Forgers love trying to copy The Beatles autographs to gain a quick buck. Thankfully with years of experience you learn to understand the signers writing styles; pen pressures, and many more interesting factors.
Beatles Autograph demand
Due to The Beatles being the biggest band in the world, who changed music history and had such a massive presence during pop culture era; the value of authentic Beatles memorabilia is only every increasing in value each year.
Mid/late 90’s Beatles Autograph Value
During the mid to late 90’s I personally started collecting autographs. Back then many celebrities were happy to sign their autographs for fans. But gaining access to such high figures were near impossible. During this time, I started studying The Beatles handwriting styles, learning the differences of each year the signed Beatles memorabilia were together and seeing their changes in signatures.
Demand then was increasing, I remember being able to purchase a full set on the one page for anywhere between £800 – £1200, condition being a big factor in the later figure.
Rarest Beatle signatures
The Beatles during their later years never toured, access to the members were near impossible. Due to the rarity of the band members being out in public; their autograph prices for these years are massively higher than the early 60’s.
Additionally, The Beatles signatures from 1967 and onwards, full sets are most rarer and demand high figures.
Authentic The Beatles Signed Photos
There has been a few signed photographs circulating of The Beatles, my favourite is the Help! era signed photos but these are rare and most are dedicated. Around 62 – 62 they were a good few signed promo photographs of the Beatles signed photos for sale. A lot of these were signed on the paper signed, so if you have one front signed. These are worth around £6000 – £8000 depending of condition. Help! era signed photographs your talking £12,000+.
The Beatles autographed record vinyl
Signed Vinyl’s are what the collectors tend to go for. These are big big money in the memorabilia market. The same goes with signed Lps; the later years are the most rarest and hit high records. I’ve seen early examples reaching £10,000 to Abbey Road, White Album hitting over £80,000. As you can see these are great investments in any form.
